It's Miller time!

Brad Miller time. He's in at last & I'm looking forward to seeing him play again.

At 192 cm & 89kg, he may be asked to help out in defence this week to cover Wheat's & Biz, despite most of us remembering him for his good performances at Full Forward during Neeta's suspension in the Wiz Cup.

There is also some talk of him helping out Whitey in the ruck, he would appear to be very Versatile.

It is great to see Miller get a game this week. Daniher usually sits young players on the bench for most of the game. So hopefully he gets plenty of ground time.

Yeah, he's popular with the ladies isn't he?

Good luck to him. He looked good against Adelaide before going off with that shoulder injury.

Dont know about him in the ruck, though. I think Broadbridge would be a better option.

He was even better in the Wizard Cup game v Brisbane in Cairns BPP. He kicked a goal and was the only one on the forward line who really contested well.

Was it the game v Fremantle last year at Subiaco where Jolly & Nicho rucked because White was a late withdrawl? I think it might've been. Don't write Nicho off rucking just because of a few centre bounces last week. If anyone is my second preference for a ruckman on Saturday night it will be Nicho. The captain might even get a go if he is needed. I don't think I would put Brad Miller in the ruck, or even Broadbridge.

Yeah, I agree with the ruck bit there. Nicho will be second choice, and even the OX will be third choice to do some rucking. I wouldn't think Miller would play ruck, just a little bit too small.

When he was drafted, his profile said he was a back pocket, running back type player, so it wouldn't surprise me if he played down back.......BUT, like we saw, he can play up forward very well and if Robbo or Greeny go off the boil a bit, he can play down there also.

I'm happy they are giving him a run, and I look forward to watching him Saturday night.

miller has some great skills and i have to agree with footyman, that goal he kicked in cairns in the PreSeason was good stuff!
Lets hope he gets a few more matches this year.
